Filter by:This is a double-blind, parallel design study in elderly primary insomnia patients and demographically matched controls. The objectives if this study are primarily: 1. To determine if functional deficits in simulated driving performance can be demonstrated in primary insomnia patients, and detected in healthy volunteers, impaired by alcohol; and secondarily: 2. To compare simulated driving performance deficits in elderly primary insomnia patients to those in healthy elderly volunteers impaired by alcohol, for at least one of the following driving endpoints: standard deviation of lane position (SDLP), standard deviation of speed (speed deviation), lane excursions, and a driving composite score.
This study will test the impact of a cognitive-behavioural self-management approach for the management of insomnia among patients with chronic pain. This self-management approach consists of a manual describing cognitive behavioural techniques for the management of insomnia. In terms of primary outcomes, it is anticipated that there would be improvements in sleep-related dimensions such as sleep quality, sleep efficiency, and night-time awakenings in the sample group receiving a copy of the self-help manual intervention to be implemented by participants in their home (intervention group), relative to the group receiving treatment as usual (control group). In terms of secondary outcomes, it is anticipated that the intervention group will show improvements in mood, fatigue, pain severity, and pain-related disability relative to the control group. The tertiary outcome variable of pre-sleep arousal is anticipated to have a moderating or mediating relationship with the sleep variables investigated.
Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is an effective treatment for chronic insomnia, which is a prevalent and costly problem. This pilot study will compare the effectiveness of two brief (6 week) psychological interventions delivered to residents of rural Manitoba using Telehealth or an interactive Internet-based platform. It is hypothesized that a) participants in the Telehealth condition will report significantly greater improvements in sleep parameters(e.g., sleep efficiency, time awake in bed, sleep-onset latency),insomnia severity, and daytime fatigue than those in the Internet condition and that b)participants in the Telehealth condition will show better adherence to treatment and greater satisfaction with treatment than those in the Internet condition.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of oral melatonin in improving sleep continuity in children with epilepsy and neurodevelopmental delay who have chronic insomnia by comparing Fast Release Melatonin (FR MLT) to placebo and Timed Release Melatonin (TR MLT) with placebo in a randomized cross-over design trial.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether trazodone is effective in the treatment of sleep disorders in Alzheimer's disease (AD).
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of Neu-P11, following the administration of multiple ascending oral doses (2, 5, 20, 50 mg or matching placebo) given nightly over 2 periods of 5 days to male and female subjects with primary insomnia. In addition, the study is aimed to determine the pharmacokinetic profile of Neu-P11 after 1 and 5 days of administration and to evaluate the hypnotic effects of Neu-P11 as well as the effects on mood and memory. The study hypothesis is that Neu-P11 is safe, tolerated and have significant sleep promoting effects.
A study in healthy volunteers of the next morning driving performance after middle-of-the-night dosing of 3.5 mg zolpidem tartrate sublingual tablet, a sleep aid. The next morning driving performance will be measured by taking a standardized driving test.
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether a self-help book for insomnia, with or without therapist support, can improve sleep and alleviate insomnia symptoms in individuals suffering from insomnia, also for persons presenting with different kinds of co-morbid problems.
The primary objective of the study is to determine whether eszopiclone (Eurofarma) is non-inferior to the reference drug zopiclone (Imovane®, Sanofi-Aventis) in the treatment of insomnia.
The study wants to examine the feasibility of a non-pharmacological approach for insomnia in nursing homes provided by trained nurses/paramedics and physicians.
